We propose a stylized model of intergenerational decision making on SRM research, greenhouse-gas abatement and SRM deployment, under uncertainties about (a) the extent of future climate damage and (b) effectiveness and potential harmful side-effects of SRM.
To address these issues, this paper introduces a novel approach to nuclear power systems design and capacity deployment under uncertainty that exploits the idea of strategic flexibility and managerial decision rules.
However, the self-deployment and uncertainty of switch-on and switch-off features of FBS in practice are key challenges.
Baselining the ISS as a deployment platform removes uncertainty about orbital parameters and eases mission planning.
Here at the home of the 1st Marine Division, many argue that the upgraded living conditions helped the Marines and their families endure the unrelenting strain of the Iraq and Afghanistan wars: the back-to-back deployments, the geopolitical uncertainties, the casualties.
That standard, which requires that new power plants be at least as clean as a new natural gas plant, has blocked a miniscule number of coal plants that were still proceeding -- but observers are pointing out that almost all of the new coal plants being proposed five years ago had already been cancelled, because of underlying economic uncertainty, deployment of wind, and cheap gas.
Moreover, the determined repeatability for the bulk DGT sampling and measurement (top-down uncertainty) is lower than the uncertainty determined using the Kragten method (bottom-up uncertainty) indicating that no major source of uncertainty during deployment and measurement of a DGT sample was omitted in the Kragten-based uncertainty assessment.
Most of all, there were uncertainties about deployment: 40percentt of soldiers rated uncertain redeployment dates as a top concern.
This paper presents an integrated framework to design a flexible multi-stage telecommunication satellite configuration deployment strategy considering the uncertainties in the evolution of the areas of interest over time.
Where's going to hold the 100% of the data that I need to see my patient?"—local service provider A, interviewee 2. Some NHS interviewees were determined to carry on with implementing electronic health records, despite deployment delays and programme uncertainties, as both the potential risks and potential benefits of introducing electronic health records had become clearer.
Aside from the scientific uncertainty, the deployment of AM would raise serious geopolitical questions.
